There is just something about women and nail polish. Personally, I have an obsession with nail polish, specifically the OPI brand. I love the shades and the color selection is wonderful. For many women like me, its a fun item to collect, but storing them can be quite a challenge. You can just throw all of your nail polishes in a box, it ruins the brush. Nail polishes last the longest when they are stored upright. While some beauty companies sell boxes for nail polish storage, they can be pretty expensive.This is where creativity comes into play.
I am sure most women have a spice rack in their kitchen. Well I bet not many have thought to use a spice rack for their nail polishes. It is the PERFECT solution. I have included pictures below of the spice rack that I use for my nail polish. It was a very ugly brown wood but a simple primer and coat of white paint made it look brand new. Another crafty tick is that you can take scrapbook paper and mount in on the back of the shelves. I have been wanting to add this touch to my own rack, but it has just taken me longer than I thought to find a paper that I like. I know this might sound lame, but I honestly love my spice rack turned nail polish rack. Its perfect for storing all of my colors and if you are slightly OCD like me, it's fun to color code them. Having this rack allows me to see all my colors and also helps them last longer. If nail polish is you obsession, I highly recommend making a rack!!
That's a lot of nail polish.
